1. EQ ground motion with gravity- uniform excitation of structure
2. In this example, the Uniaxial Section of Example 2b is replaced by a fiber section. Inelastic uniaxial materials are used in this example,
3. Which are assigned to each fiber, or patch of fibers, in the section.
4. In this example the axial and flexural behavior are coupled, a characteristic of the fiber section.
5. The nonlinear/inelastic behavior of a fiber section is defined by the stress-strain response of the uniaxial materials used to define it.
6. To run EQ ground-motion analysis (BM68elc.acc</pyExamples/EarthquakeExamples/Example2c/BM68elc.acc> needs to be downloaded into the same directory)
7. The problem description can be found here (example:2c)
